Sorry but I disagree - personal taste.

He noticed no difference in performance.
He did say that the exhausts may be a little louder.
I think they look nice too.

You're comparing apples with pears Jay.

The Fut Fut is running a twin pipe system. We're talking about a single pipe system and the added pipes aren't for balancing.

I am looking at the twin pipe mod on the futura andy. But would it really matter if there was a balance box? As long as the mid pipes were the same length?

Why re-invent the wheel? Get, or copy, an H-pipe.

Mart.
Good to hear from you mate.
You should know that H-pipes are like hens teeth.
How can we get a copy (unless someone has the blueprints?)?
I'm thinking of straight thru pipes to replace the rear section, with the brackets/mounts for the rear plate and side panels etc.
What do you think?

I think there's one on Mart's bike. I know where it is, I'll bring a hammer you bring tea and sandwiches.

H-pipe and Staintunes on mine. And they're staying there!
